Deac began his racing career at the age of 12, racing a 4-cylinder stock car at Wake County Speedway. In his first race ever, he finished 10th out of 28 cars. Success continued to follow this great start as Deac won his first race, in only his 6th start, in the 4-Cylinder Division at Wake County Speedway. Deac became the youngest driver to win in the Limited Late Model Division at Southern National, in only his first attempt driving an 8-Cylinder car, at the age of 16.

At 18 years old, Deac won his first Late Model Stock Car race at Orange County Speedway, along with finishing 2nd in the points at OCS. That same year, Deac qualified on the pole out of 128 cars for a race at Richmond Interntional Raceway, and finished 5th. At 19, Deac became the youngest driver to win a race a Southern National Speedway.

In the 2000 season, Deac earned another bridesmaid championship finish at Orange County Speedway. He earned 4 wins which brought Deac to his 50th career win.

The 2001 and 2002 seasons brought 2 wins and 7th and 3rd place finishes in the Championship at Orange County Speedway.

The 2003 season brought 6 wins in 13 starts at Orange County Speedway, along with an 8th place finish, after qualifying 4th, at Martinsville Speedway.

In 2004 Deac won the Championship at Southern National Speedway. Deac also competed in the UARA race at Bristol Motor Speedway, qualifying 5th and finishing 4th.

Deac returned to Bristol in 2005 for a 2nd place finish in the UARA race, after qualifying 9th. Deac also made 10 more starts in the UARA Series in 2005 for 2 wins, 5 tops 5s, 7 top 10s.

As the 2006 Southern National Late Model Champion, for the 2nd time in as many years running SNRP full time, McCaskill had 6 wins, 19 top tens, and 18 top 5s in 20 races this past season. McCaskill’s biggest win of his career came at Southern National Raceway Park that same year. After earning the Pole at the Thanksgiving Classic, McCaskill outran Nascar Nextel Cup driver Denny Hamlin for the win. Winning the championship allowed McCaskill to compete in the Nascar Dodge Weekly Racing Series. With 16 top 10s and 4 wins, he finished 5th in the season points, thus ranking McCaskill 5th in the region and 10th in the nation among Late Model Stock Car drivers.

The 2007 Season saw McCaskill start his first NASCAR Busch, now Nationwide, Series at O'Reilly Raceway Park with Evernham Motorsports in the No. 9 Puryear Tanklines Dodge Charger. After starting 36th, and climbing up to 17th, McCaskill took the lead at halfway with pit strategy. He led 5 laps and remained in the top 8, on 30 laps older tires and first non Nextel Cup Series driver, for 35 laps before being spun by another competitor. McCaskill also attempted to defend his championship at Southern National Raceway Park and looked to be strong in achieving yet a third Championship but missing a a few weekends of twin races in preparation and running of the ORP race dropped McCaskill out of the championship hunt. McCaskill managed to finish the season with 4 wins, 14 top 5s, 18 top 10s in 25 races including other tracks such as South Boston Speedway and Martinsville Speedway where he finished 9th in the Bailey's 300. McCaskill’s skill also reach outside driving the racecar to include fabricating the bodies on the racecar and building his own shocks as learned from Penske Racing School.
